INGREDIENTI

  •  
  • Prune Chipotle purée:
  • 1/4 cup diced Spanish onions

DIRECTIONS

1.  To prepare sauce, gently cook onions in oil over medium heat until lightly Caramelised. Deglaze with brandy and cook to burn off alcohol. Add remaining sauce ingredients and cook gently for 25 minutes or until Prunes are soft. Place in a blender and purée until smooth, season with salt and keep warm.

2.  While sauce is cooking, preheat oven to 400°F.  Combine brown butter, nutmeg and salt in a medium bowl. Add cauliflower and toss to coat. Spread in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast for 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from oven and toss with almonds and chives; keep warm.

3.  To roast grapes, reduce oven temperature to 350°F, Toss grapes, olive oil and salt together in a small bowl. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from oven and keep warm.

4.  To prepare sole, heat butter and oil over medium heat in a very large skillet. Lightly season fish with salt and dredge in flour, shaking off excess. Add fish to skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on one side or until golden brown. Flip gently and cook for 1 to 2 minutes more. Remove from pan with a slotted spatula.

5.  Spoon desired amount of Prune Chipotle purée onto 4 plates and place fish on top. Reheat the cauliflower mixture, if necessary, and top fish with arugula leaves, cauliflower and roasted grapes.
